Cannes, France

          We've been in Cannes for a week. It's my first time in France and there's been a lot of poker talk, amazing cappuccinos, Bonjour!'s, Merci!'s and beautiful beaches. It's been the Who's Who of the poker world staying in our hotel; I'm still laughing at the fact that I can even identify ANY poker celebrity...who am I? Just more proof of how much of a crazy ride my life has been since moving to Vegas and being immersed in the heart of the poker community.
           Jesse and I were flown out here by 888 poker, the company who signed him as an ambassador for their website. They are an older company and are known to really take care of their players and they are definitely living up to that here! Our hotel is beautiful and right in the middle of everything. We were immediately picked up from the airport, escorted to the hotel and they paid for his tournament buy-ins too. Cannes is cool because there aren't huge sites to see...in other words, I don't have to feel like a "bad tourist" if I don't get to everything. Instead they encourage you to take long walks through the windy alleys lined with cafes and shops, lounge by the Mediterranean and drink cheap wine :) Easy living. I love my life :)
